Abstract
Disclosed herein is a transmitting apparatus for both wireless charging and short range communication. According to an embodiment, the transmitting apparatus for both wireless charging and short range communication includes a power transmitter configured to wirelessly transmit power to a power receiver, a communication transmitter configured to wirelessly transmit information to a communication receiver, and a controller configured to control the transmitting apparatus to be selectively switched between a first mode in which the power transmitter is enabled and the communication transmitter is disabled and a second mode in which the communication transmitter is enabled and the power transmitter is disabled. The controller may switch to the first mode when the power receiver is sensed, and may switch to the second mode when the communication receiver is sensed. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a power receiver or a communication receiver is sensed and then a power transmitter or a communication transmitter corresponding thereto is selectively operated so that a communication error that occurs when the power transmitter and the communication transmitter are simultaneously operated is prevented and an unnecessary waste of power is reduced.
